Had the car tuned at CV Performance on Saturday morning...

The car has been tuned to run on 10psi boost where it made 189.6rwkw!!!

(alot better than the 114rwkw effort at AUTOSALON)

Then wound the boost up to 13psi and hit 203.4rwkw!!!

I now need to get a custom dump pipe and a high flow cat - CAN ANYONE HELP???

Next step is to see what sort of time i can make at WSID

*Will post up pick of print out soon*

Basti,

Lol, the 114rwkw at AUTOSALON was coz i had massive big range fuel cut and i was miss firing bad...

But, mods include...

- 3" exhaust w/ 6" cannon 4" tip

- Front mount intercooler 300x600x76mm - JustJap

- Cold air intake

- Pod Filter

- SSQ BOV

- NGK race spark plugs - instead of having a pin for spark, they have a big flat area! gapped to 0.7mm

- GFB manual boost contoller

- Apexi SAFC forgot that one!!! whoops!!!

- Shell V-power Racing!

Thats all performance wise....

300x50076mm... daamn thats a big intercooler! :whistling:

From what I've seen the spark plugs with the big flat area are the copper type. The Iridium are usually the pin type. I could be wrong but those race plugs sound like the regular copper plugs? Anyway if you need to gap them down to 0.7mm to cure your misfire then expect a coil pack replacement in the near future :rolleyes:

Nice power from the mods though!

And in regards to replacing coil packs, i won't have a problem with miss firing as the spark plugs are more than cable of running the car with the standard turbo.

I will only need to replace coil packs say if i do a high flow and start pushing for close to 300rwkw or so...

If u run the right plugs at the right gap, and the right sort of fuel, say good buy to miss firing!

0.7 just seems a bit too much.. thats all!! no matter what plugs they are!!

0.75 seems alright..

Anyways if the cars happy, then thats all too it. .

Which safc do you have?

Please post a dyno graph.. Keen to see how the curve looks like!!

btw gd kw reading.. congrats!!

i was getting 183kw without any safc or tune on 10psi.. I had a nice curve, but i might invest in an safc soon.. Since i can get a hold of a power fc due to huge price..

Speaking of gapping sparkies,.....I bought a set of NGK Iridiums and wanted to gap it same as my old sparkies, but looking at the back of the packaging, it said "DO NOT REGAP THE SPARK PLUGS AS......"....so I left it at god know what gap (most likely 0.9 or 1) is that ok??

I'm not getting any misfire at that gap range.

James, if you have a look at the part number for the spark plugs, it tells you what the standard gap is. For example, NGK's BKR5EIX-11's have a 1.1mm gap, it's the last two numbers that tell you what the gap is.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
